TheGrefg breaks Ninja\u2019s world record for most-viewed Twitch stream TheGrefgSpanish streamer \u2018TheGrefg\u2019 has broken Ninja\u2019s world record for most people watching a Twitch stream during the Galactus Fortnite event. David \u2018TheGrefg\u2019 C\u00e1novas made Twitch history while streaming the Galactus event, which marked the end of Fortnite season 4, when he had more people watching him at once than any other individual Twitch streamer ever has in history. The Spaniard was watching and reacting to the event, and captures appear to confirm that he reached a total of 660,000 people watching his stream at the same time before Twitch unfortunately crashed. The previous record you might remember was held by Ninja from when he teamed up with rapper Drake, where the duo peaked at 635k viewers at once while playing Fortnite back in 2018. This insane amount of simultaneous viewers in a broadcast was almost double the figures of the previous record, held by DrDisrespect \u2014 now streaming on YouTube \u2014 when he had 338,000 during his return stream in February 2018. Now, the title for most-watched stream on Twitch now belongs to TheGrefg, and while there are no official figures yet, screenshots and clips definitely seem to indicate the streamer managed to bring in than 660,000 people simultaneously. Grefg was far from the only streamer posting impressive viewer counts during the Galactus event, which actually \u201cbroke\u201d Twitch and caused the site to temporarily crash following the big reveal. This is the big reason why the official viewer count, while definitely impressive, isn\u2019t exactly known just yet.
